In the fast-moving world of real estate and corporate growth, closing the deal is just the beginning. The real value lies in how that deal is structured, how the tax implications are managed, and whether it positions you for long-term success.

At Mavacy, my role is to help clients — from developers and business owners to investors and nonprofits — see the full picture. Whether you’re acquiring property, forming a joint venture, or expanding your company, I bring together deep knowledge of commercial real estate law, tax strategy, and corporate governance to help you make smart, lasting decisions.

Turning Complexity Into Clarity

Real estate projects, especially those involving development or zoning, are rarely straightforward. There are layers of local permitting, financing arrangements, and partnership structures to navigate, and each carries legal and financial consequences. I advise clients at every phase of a project’s life cycle, from land use and acquisition to disposition or 1031 exchanges, with a focus on risk mitigation and deal efficiency.

Similarly, for closely held companies and partnerships, structuring matters. The right tax plan or governance model can be the difference between scaling smoothly or getting stuck in conflict. That’s why I approach every engagement with both technical precision and practical insight, ensuring that legal solutions also support your bottom line.

Business Structure as a Strategic Asset

Clients often come to me for help with forming a business, but what they really need is a framework for sustainable growth. My work includes:

• Structuring tax-efficient entities and joint ventures
• Negotiating and drafting commercial contracts
• Advising on land use, zoning, and local development regulations
• Capital planning and governance for startups and nonprofits
• Counsel on real estate acquisitions, leases, and asset sales

Whether you’re building a portfolio, launching a new venture, or managing a complex transaction, I work to ensure every piece of the puzzle fits — legally, financially, and strategically.

Legal Guidance That’s Grounded in Business Reality

With an LL.M. in Taxation from Northwestern and years of experience closing high-value deals, I understand how legal strategy intersects with your business goals. My job isn’t just to reduce exposure — it’s to unlock value.

At Mavacy, I collaborate across teams to offer comprehensive counsel that looks beyond documents and deadlines. I help clients solve problems before they surface, build structures that scale, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
